Studied physics at University Hannover/Germany, finishing with Dr. degree in Plasma Physics
Direktor und Professor, i.R. at Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt ( German equivalent of NIST, USA ), retired 2007, Braunschweig/Germany
Former Head of Dept. „Time and Frequency“ ( Atomic clocks. Laser spectroscopy, Spectroscopy in general, but in particular also spectroscopy of CO2, Single Ion spectroscopy, Signal analysis, Laser physics, Nonlinear physics, etc.. many more ). About 40 coworkers, of whom 25 physicists, 200+ publications in refereed journals ( see Google scholar ), plus the papers of my coworkers, three books.
Visiting Professor at University of Copenhagen, Tokyo Institute of Technology, etc. Numerous international cooperations and projects, with total funding of ca. 2 Mio. Euro.
Responsible for granting research projects by European Union among others in the ESPRIT project ( total funds distributed: 250 Mio. ECU ( = Euro)).
Holding faculty position at Physics, University of Queensland/Australia. 1989/90
Reviewing projects worldwide ( US, Australia, Singapore, China); reviewing papers (mostly for Phys. Rev. Letters these days)
Present work on climate questions in cooperation with colleagues from USA, China, Germany ( papers with international coauthors in high citation index, refereed journals. This work relies heavily on my previous expertise in Nonlinear Physics and Signal analysis)
Core ability: hands-on laboratory work ( still.. ! )
I would be interested to continue participating in research in Physics.
